From Barcodes To Trees: My Unique Paintings That Merge Opposite Concepts

Categories: Art | Beauty | Nature |

My name is Camila Echavarría and I am a Colombian artist. The jungle and nature of my native country – Colombia – have had a significant impact on my work. My artistic reflections have been deeply influenced by plants of significant importance to my region, such as Ceibas, Wax Palms, Guayacanes, Yarumos, and Heliconias.

My hands shake except when I am painting. That is why I state that my work makes the impossible possible. I create unthinkable creations that merge opposite concepts.

With my brush, barcodes intertwine with nature, guiding viewers into a realm where the known merges with the unknown, inviting profound contemplation.
Guided by the intricate dance of Fibonacci, my art achieves a meticulous harmony amidst chaos, a testament to the wonder of mathematics interwoven with creativity.
My artistry has earned me the title of Artist of the Year 2023 at the DSWF exhibition in London. I also showcased my work in exhibitions across Copenhagen, Mallorca, Miami, and Medellin, and shows such as Miami Art, Palm Beach Art, and Wynwood Art.

The juxtaposition of man-made elements, such as barcodes, serves as a reminder of our impact on the environment. These sculptures are a visual narrative, encouraging viewers to appreciate and preserve the natural world while contemplating the consequences of human actions on our surroundings.

While my hands might tremble in the ordinary tasks of life, they find an extraordinary stillness and purpose when embraced by the brush and canvas. In the act of painting, my challenges, like the unsteady hands, fade into the background, and what remains is a dance between creativity and resilience. It’s a therapeutic journey that transcends the physical, allowing me to express with a steadiness that is elusive elsewhere. Painting becomes not just an art but a refuge, transforming challenges into strokes of vibrant possibility.
